of dragons & critters and yin & yang kittens.

my cat shadow is a very prolific cat and gives birth to baby sweethearts annually. we always let them grow up until they're old enough to be given away. growing up in a huge garden where they can roam around freely - isn't that the best way to grow up? it's always a joy to visit my parents and my cat in that time of the year.

i have also included some pictures of a little rhine trip i made in the middle of may. and the occasional random ones that didn't fit somewhere. 

rhine wood dragon.

sitting on the rhine beach enjoying the beautiful day.



my stone collection of the day. ( i seriously have a lot of stones in my home. i love to collect them! )

the river rhine near eltville.

random skull assortment ( shot this at the naxoshalle in frankfurt - i was there for a japanese movie festival )

Ooh yes you're completely right about it, being on the field among those flowers is what I'd like to do even at the moment, haha.
And what a cuties did I just see, oh my gods! Your kittens are simply too charming. Do they have names already?

the black & white one belongs to a friend of mine and is called cooper.

and the other one's name i don't know. we gifted her to acquaintances. since i don't live with my parents anymore and don't know the people they gave her to, knowing about her life is impossible ;_; i hear that the people take good care of her though.

Oh, good to hear that she has responsible owners =) My cat was found in the trash, so it shows exactly how cruel people can be. Not everyone should be allowed to take care of living creatures...

yeah, you're definitely right. some people just don't know what responsibility means. 'oh, this animal is cute, let's get it, even though it won't be cute forever and needs food and attention etc.' and when they notice it means work as well, they toss the poor thing away.

Yes & the worst are those people that buy pets for children on Christmas etc & then there is no one who takes care of a new cat or dog, & finally they end up in an animal shelter =/

july '20: lake petersdorf discoveries and a plea against genocide.

the green wild meadows of malchow's sandfeld. in the west of malchow there is a big chunk of forest that spans towards plauer see, a widely 'uncultivated' area these days, but it hasn't always been this way. in my last post i mentioned the nazi munition factory that had been built in these woods, away from prying eyes of their enemies and where they also built an external subcamp for the concentration camp ravensbrück. exactly these woods we explored on a pretty sunny day, betraying the darkness that happened around these parts. isn't it weird that there are places in this world that were built or used by dark forces and horrible regimes and you vist them 80 years later and they are the most peaceful places you can imagine? sometimes my brain can't cope with the contrast of knowing what was in the past and what the present looks and feels like. it definitely leaves me with a strange impression often, kind of like a little sting in my heart and brain that is not ...

may '20: seeking modernism.

super pink rhododendron buds emerging! i start off this post with some flower images to appreciate and praise the time of spring, especially the month of may, which is the most abundant spring month to me personally. all the blossoms, all the fresh greens amass during may, and my heart and mind are hardly ever able to not frolick & gush about it all! for this post i am returning to one walk i did with the sole purpose to find a special mid-century villa in königstein ( which would ultimately prove to be a failure - i did find it, but i couldn't approach it properly to have a good look at it and only ever saw a tiny bit of the garden/forest side ). the whole walk was not a letdown, though, as i did find some other mid-century & brutalism gems and thoroughly enjoyed walking through the old spa town in the taunus mountains. rhododendron shrubs yield all kinds of different blossoms in myriad colours, they are easy to breed, therefore a wide variety can be found all over the wor...

november: thuringian forest.

the day we visited the thuringian forest near luisenthal we would also receive the death notice of my cousin. while the day in luisenthal was pretty magic - i even found a goat skull to take home for my not so fast growing skull collection - the time we got home and received the phone call of my grandmother, everything went dull. we always had hoped for him to recover - over the course of his sickness there were multiple times we'd thought he was on his way up, but that also counted for the times it was clear that the cancer was severe and probably not defeatable. in the end he fought four years, but he couldn't conquer. his constant optimism & general good will wasn't enough as his body decided to give up on him. i'm still thinking a lot about him, he was such a good natured guy, always seeing the good in everything and everyone. it's so strange to know that he's never going to be on any future family party gathering again. we discussed so many things whe...
